I'm some kind of freak when it comes to Bad Religion (the best religion). I have like 12 of their CDs. Other punk favs are Lagwagon, NOFX, Rancid and Pennywise. My fav hip hop crews are Atmosphere, Eyedea and Abilities, Unknown Profits, Typical Cats and Talib Kweli. I've just started listening to some Japanese groups like Yoko Kanno and the Seatbelts because I'm a B-boy and they have some good stuff to dance to and jazz just kicks ass even though I only listen to it when I practice or go to competitions.

11. Thin Lizzy (Probably my most favourite band today. Every single lyric touches my heart. Not too sound like a queer)

Wow, alot of kids into Poison The Well these days. They blew up out of nowhere. I gotta say they used to be one of my favorite bands but their new stuff is god-awful. Tear From The Red was a big dissapointment, and I heard a few tracks from their newest CD and I guess it's allright, but nothing beats Opposite of December as far as PTW goes. They're hell of a lot better than From Autumn To Ashes anyhow.

Japanese: L'arc~en~Ciel, Pierrot, Glay, /\ucifer. I also like some of Malice Mizer's stuff, but I'm not sure I'd put them among my absolute favorites. ^^;

If you like these bands, I can almost guarantee you'd like my friend's band Lesson 11. They go back to LA in August for talks with Geffen, Fat Wreck, Dreamworks and Capitol records. Keep an ear out for them!

Though no one's heard of them. -_- Sinnead O'Conner did a cover of their song Tears From the Moon, and I heard it over in the states before the Lunascape Album's even been imported here. Garrg!

But they're good. Kind of like the unholy love child of Bjork and Enya. got a few songs for download at www.lunascape.net, in case you really don't feel up to getting the CD imported from @(&#@ing France. (Took them 2 months to ship. TWO MONTHS!)

I hate you, France.

"They might be giants." The only intelligent and worth-listening-to band. Most of all the other bands just make noises, cuss, or have nothing to do except just plucking their guitars that produces 500 decibels

TMBG totally rocks, I won't take up too much space here but I'd just like to know (Cuz I rarely hear from anyone that knows them from more than tiny toons, not that I'm knocking that...Dizzy Devil with an accordian...) what your fav. songs are, cuz they have so many styles...

have tha video and all thier albums.

it was a little homage to bruce campbell and army of darkness which jocaim told me he was a big fan of when i was hanging out with them last year.
(and damn oskar is tall)
:cheers:

favorite band...that's obvious...Alkaline Trio....but at close seconds are Spitalfield, RX Bandits, Senses Fail, Atreyu and Funeral for a Friend....there's many others as well...but those are worth naming...

The Bouncing Souls, Less Than Jake, Anti-flag, The Pillows, The Beatles, nofx, operation ivy, Green Day, Goldfinger, basically anything from DDR, the beatles, sex pistols, the ramones, the buzzcocks, the clash, and some more that arent coming to mind right now..gotta say that if i had to pick three they'd probly be The Pillows, Green Day, and The Bouncing Souls. *nod* yep.

I like a LOT of different bands, but at the moment I am realllly digging this badass punk band called Lesson Eleven. Check out their website! The members are really hot too!
http://www.lessoneleven.com

Dir en grey, X-Japan, The Clash, Depeche Mode, Malice Mizer, Duran Duran,The Cure, Weezer ( their older stuff is the best, pinkerton yay, but their stuff is o.k.), I remember when I was little I used to listen and dance to the Styxs, Ozzy , Orgy is o.k I guess I have the first c.d. but don't really listen to it that much, Polysics, Five Iron Fenzy, Culture Club, Billy Idol, Adam and the ants ect.. many many more, I like rock, j-rock, metal, new wave ect... What can I say music is my life. :D

Right now I got The Vapors-Turning Japanese stuck in my head * starts singing* I got your picture of me and you, you wrote I love you I love you too I sit here staring when theres nothing else to do. Ok. I'll stop now :)

The get up kids, Jimmy eat world, the cars, men without hats ( the safty dance!), The Romantics ( I love the song" Talking in your sleep"), cadet,foo fighters, black sabbeth, green day, the pixies, linkin park (I'm not a big fan but I can put up with the music for abit, have the first c.d.) I bet I can think of more, I really need to get out more. :chatah: You should see my folder from high school, has all kinds of bands, pictures and jokes on it that me and my friends drew.

Metal-Disturbed/Power Man 5000-Been down with the sickness since day 1, but I have to give props to Rob Zombie's lil bro Spider and the rest of PM5K
Rap-Wu Tang Clan-Seeing how I'm a resident of Shaolin, met more than half the band on numerous occausions (including selling Method Man a copy of FF9), the Wu's my favorite, despite the fact that they've been drafted by the Chinese in the racial draft.
Nu-Metal-KoRN-the innovators of Nu Metal, bands like Bizkit, LP,Orgy and Staind wouldnt be around it without Johnny D and the boys.
Punk:The Ramones. Fuck what the kids listen now a days, this is 100% punk rock right here. Ain't no one better than these guys when it comes to punk, that's why the genre died when Joey passed away in 2k1.
For Shitz n Giggles- M.S.I.-Not quite techo, nor nu metal, M.S.I's the best at what they do...whatever that be..

Haven't met anyone terribly famous, but I do have a ripped deftones shirt with three of the members sigs on it, including chino's...and I have a rose head from their last show in philly ( they decided to throw roses out into the crowd)....

02-06-2004, 03:54 PM

Atreyu, Mindless Self Indulgence, and Be for u are some of my favs

Nekobun

02-07-2004, 05:28 PM

Heiryck: Agreed, SW was awesome, even if they did kind of trickle out when they got to their last album. :/ I have all the ones they put out before that one, though, and will probably get it eventually. I worshipped Stabbing Westward for quite some time.

Anymore, I guess my favorite would have to be Jawbreaker. They were on the tail end of second-wave punk (or punk revival) in the late 80s, early 90s, and helped define both emo and hardcore when the two were more intertwined, before both branches split off from each other and decided to suck (for the most part, anyway). Their lyrics are simple, down-to-earth, and some of the most real and human stuff I've ever heard. With some delightful instrumentation to accompany. Check them out if you get a chance; there are only five or six albums out on CD tops, and those cover Jawbreaker's entire library now that Etc., an amalgam of their compilation tracks, some b-sides, and rarities, is out. Even though they broke up years ago, all the members went on to other bands so far as I can recall, the most notable being frontman Blake Schwarzenbach's move to Jets To Brazil, which are also incredible.

<---Bjork! or Reels of White Softly Flow. or Death Cab for Cutie. i can't decide. shut up.

PS - it is probably the worst band on Earth. LOL.

Indecision.

By far. It's a shame they're technically not around today, only in the form of a watered down band that definitely isn't as great as it's predecessor. No band can get me this angry. This song for example, it's about the theory that the government has the cure for AIDS but they hold it back because there's so much money to be made in illness. Theory is the key word. Things like these are certainly interesting though.

"Our pain is profit, health is poverty
unveil the truth - we've swallowed lies
they've stripped us clean - tied us to their machines
one death is tragedy - billions the industry
Epidemics equal revenue
plugged in for life as you wear that caring disguise
how many more lies am I insured for?
we pay for research while we live in disease
so sick and tired as we wait...(for you to)
Release the cure
How many more lies are you prepared to sell?
I'll swallow another pill as I drown in my wishing well
searching for something more by the light of a fading torch
weeding us out, keeping us down - involuntary unnatural selection
bleed out the money before we are dead
force us to wait as the infection spreads
all this time the clock is ticking
this is not what you'd call living..."

:::hasn't posted in this thread since WAY back when:::

fave all time band: U2. i've loved them since i was 3 and i'm 26 now. lol

also: pearl jam, nin, garbage, tori amos, metallica, evanessence, kmndf, godsmack, queen, styx, and a few other though i'll give a lot of bands a-listen. these are just the ones that stick out for me at the moment. other than that... it's trance music (go figure!).

*gasp!* Are you implying that someone here hasn't heard of RUSH before!? They don't need to like them, but not ever hearing of them is Music Blasphemy!!! Nah, in all seriousness though, I probably wouldn't have even posted in here if I hadn't seen that someone with the words "Rush_Signals" in their name had posted. Haha gg!!

Well huh... music on radio and TV usually suck anyway. These are usually simple kinds of music born from the INDUSTRY and they're simple so they can produce more and make more money, that's all...

If you want real music, look hard for underground bands... the better they are, the harder they are to be appreciated, because of this stupid industry..

I am really into a lot of different genres..its hard to limit. I guess my top five are..umm..the beates, sarah brightman (i know not a band but still excellent), the pillows, No Doubt (tragic kingdom) and...Ahhh! this is too hard:hafha: :hafha: :untrust:

Iced Earth is probably number one for me. Then is probably Galneryus, Dragonforce, and Blind Guardian. Iron Maiden's probably in there somewhere too, because you can't like power metal without good ol' Maiden.

Oh, and if Daisuke Ishiwatari (guy who wrote Guilty Gear music) counts as a band, put him in too.

Can`t say I`ve heard or listen to any of the bands you know, Although I`m not one Myself i`m into chav-like music, all the scouse/bouncy house! anything less than 160 BPM to me is pretty boring!
